The MOST INSANE way to clean quartz quickly

In this video, we take you through the unique process of cleaning beautiful, rare quartz crystals from Mozambique! These quartz plates include stunning goethite-included quartz, smoky quartz, and amethyst. We start by carefully cleaning off the dirt from the crystals before packing them gently into a 100-liter drum to avoid any damage. The drum is filled with water, then we add about one and a half cups of granulated oxalic acid, which will help dissolve the iron oxide stains.

Once the crystals are packed and submerged, we secure the lid and place the drum over an open fire. As the water heats, the oxalic acid works to transform the iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) into a more soluble form (FeO₄). After several hours of boiling, we pressure-wash the crystals to reveal their natural, vibrant colors.

This video captures how we prepared and packed the drum, and heated it to boiling. Stay tuned for the final reveal of these brilliantly cleaned crystals!
